there's a world in which Dems win in '28, they champion Anthropic because of all this, intentionally fuck xAI and OpenAI, and Anthropic leads us to AGI i wouldnt bet on it, but it'd be an insanely funny self-own and a massive victory for EAs

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Leads with a specific number, which is concrete enough to be worth a second of attention.
Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Leads with a number
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, blunt
Written for: People building with AI

We've raised $65 billion in Series H funding at a $965 billion post-money valuation, led by @AltimeterCap, Dragoneer, @Greenoaks, and @sequoia. This investment will help us advance our research and expand our capacity to meet growing demand for Claude.

As part of our $600B commitment, Mac mini will be produced in the US for the first time later this year! We're accelerating our progress even further— producing more AI servers and opening an all-new Apple Advanced Manufacturing Center for hands-on training.

We’ve raised $30B in funding at a $380B post-money valuation. This investment will help us deepen our research, continue to innovate in products, and ensure we have the resources to power our infrastructure expansion as we make Claude available everywhere our customers are.

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

i'd actually be very curious to see a breakdown of compensation across labs i just figured Anthropic was right up there w/ OpenAI, Meta, etc in competing hard via comp packages...but maybe not? maybe the Religion of Claude is enough of a draw to work under Dario?

wait why would they want to buy his position? “SITUATIONAL AWARENESS HAS $5B ANTHROPIC HOLDING: FT” ooooohhhhhhhh i see

Anthropic: "We are terrified of recursive self-improvement, it may kill us all!" Also Anthropic: "But like, not when we do it hahaha. I mean, like, when all those other labs do it, that'll be bad, so like they're not allowed. but we got the secret recipe, trust us, we're chill"

didn’t realize “American Dynamism” meant “AI companies better suck up to the military, do whatever they say and do illegal surveillance on Americans” but, hey, i guess that’s why i’m not a partner at a16z
